8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch takes your
network to a whole new level of productivity—and does it
using your existing architecture. There’s no need to aban-
don your present equipment or radically change your way of
doing things. This switch from Linksys allows you to do what you
already do—only faster!
Apply this switching power to your current Ethernet network, and
your data traffic efficiency will improve several times over.
Connect your Gigabit-equipped workstations to the Switch's
10/100/1000 ports for full-duplex, dedicated bandwidth of up to
1000Mbps!
With the EtherFast 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch, you can con-
nect your existing 10/100 Ethernet network to your Gigabit net-
work backbone without any additional equipment. All ports are
auto-negotiating, and have auto MDI/MDI-X. Address learning
and aging is supported, as well as 802.3x flow control with head-
of-line blocking prevention to keep your high-speed clients from
bogging down in low-speed traffic.
The EtherFast 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch from Linksys is the
all-in-one solution for your Gigabit and 10/100 networking needs.
